Attachment overview
The Yard Hand was offered with several pull-type attachments. A 20-inch reel mower with optional grass catcher, a 390-pound lawn roller, a dump cart (200 pound capacity), and a 24-inch drop-spreader for seed or fertilizer. A 10-inch circular saw kit could be mounted on the hood and driven off the tractor's engine. A Life Magazine feature showed an exhaust-mounted insecticide fogger, sickle-bar hedge trimmer, and three-gang rear mower as future attachments but it is unclear if they made it into production.Reference
